Lourdas
is off the main road to Argostoli. A steep winding road meanders it’s
way down from Vlachata through Lourdas and the small village of Lourdata
until you get to the beach, part shingle part sand.
Lourdas although a small resort packs in quite a lot with numerous studios,
houses, villas and hotels which are all full in the peak summer months.
Some apartments are situated on the beach overlooking the ever-changing
turquoise blue clear water. These tend to be more expensive but well worth
it if you like the sound of the sea lapping against the shore.

The rest of Lourdas is made up of over twenty good restaurants a couple
of open all hours’ mini markets, car/bike rental shops and a couple
of lively music bars with plenty of outdoors seating such as Astra music
bar, Muses etc.
Things here are pretty laid back and after the
long stroll down the hill to the beach passing through the village of Lourdata
you’ll need to put your feet up and rest!

Lourdata
consists of few restaurants all offering good quality food at reasonably
priced. There’s a small mini market a couple of cafes and bars.
Lourdas beach is very popular
with plenty of room for everyone. Along the top of the beach set back are
a few tavernas and restaurants. Catering for lunchtime snacks or evening
meals.

More information on Lourdas

For
what many would argue is the very best fresh seafood on Kefalonia
try Lithero restaurant. Turn right as you get into the village
opposite Alexisí restaurant next to a large tree by a supermarket
and go down the dirt track to the bottom. They catch the fish
locally and charcoal grill to get their succulent taste and
flavour. Itís also very picturesque overlooking the bay and
its small harbour; the restaurant itself is shaded out of the
sun. Perfect for lunch or evening meal.
From lourdas beach you can walk along to Lithero beach then
around some rocks to Trapezaki all quality beaches and loads
of space, there are also sun beds and umbrellas for rent. On
the quieter beaches people do go nakedÖ

Lourdas
the Good Quiet
community feel about the place, good restaurants, tavernas,
good views and superb beaches. In places you can wade out for
ages and it’s still only up to the waist! Good fun for
all the family and a great place for a spot of late night skinny-dipping!

Lourdas
the Bad The
giant hill that is both a pleasant stroll down and an absolute
killer on the way back up! Not suitable for the elderly or infirm,
to be honest without hired transport the walk is challenging
for the fittest of people when made everyday.
